Fluorescence references support multiplex real-time PCR workflows

15 Jun, 2026

Starna fluorescence references can be used in multiplex real time PCR by validating fluorescence performance across channels, verifying signals, and ensuring consistent interpretation of multi fluorophore signals.

Multiplex real time PCR is increasingly important in genomic analysis, enabling the simultaneous detection of multiple gene targets in complex samples and supporting genomic workflows.

Since the late 1960s, Starna has pioneered the development of photostable fluorescent references. The Starna fluorescence SF Series References are Certified Reference Materials used to validate fluorescence performance across multiple channels and enable consistent signal comparison.

Custom manufactured to match your PCR instrument and UKAS accredited, Starna fluorescence materials help maintain a consistent fluorescence response as multiplex PCR assay complexity increases.

Key benefits & features include:

  • Customised sample profile: Developed for your device, geometry, and assay — including formats that match standard PCR tubes for seamless use in multiplex PCR instruments.
  • Ideal for regulated environments: Supports FDA, IVDR, and ASTM calibration requirements.
  • Photostable: Proven long term stability with emission matched to customised master standards.
  • Versatile use: Ideal for R&D, QC, validation, servicing, and built in integration.
  • Improved consistency: Enables detection of calibration drift and supports reproducible measurements.
  • Expert support: From initial enquiry through to manufacture and deployment.
